P: Docking icons for extension panels, plugins, and the Adobe Plugins panel missing on Windows 10

The title pretty much says it all.  Installed 22.4 on Windows 10 today, and all the docking icons for third-party extension panels, plugins, and even Adobe's own Plugins panel are missing.  Totally blank.  The plugins listed inside the Adobe's plugins panel have their corresponding icons, but the docking icons for when these items are in a panel dock are gone.  The docking icon for the Adobe Color Theme's panel is also missing.  There may be others.  I've not checked every Adobe panel.  An icon-less panel dock is not very useful.

PlugIn Icons not visible anymore since the bugfix release v22.4.


After an update from v22.3.1 to the latest v22.4 all the PlugIn icons disappeared in the panel bar. The PlugIn panels are still available but without any icon.

When rolling back to revision v22.31 the icons becomes visible again.


Environment: Windows 10 Pro, 20H2, build 19042.985

Did someone else issued this problem? What about Mac OS, is there the same issue?

EDIT:

Just realized that there is already a related topic available -> Docking icons for extension panels, plugins, and the Adobe Plugins panel missing in 22.4 on Windows 10 | Adobe Photoshop Family

Yep, this is happening to me on Windows 10 as well. I thought I was having some kind of weird screen resolution bug, since I usually work with my Surface Pro hooked up to a monitor, and today I was working directly on the Surface. I tried restarting Photoshop as well as connecting to the monitor and restarting the computer, but no luck. That ultimately led me here, so I'm at least glad to know I'm not the only one experiencing this.

This problem is not a "windows 10" problem. It's a Adobe problem and should be reported to support team.

@Dennis Zito I think you're right. I'm on windows 10. I've just rolled back to the previous version and everything is back as it should be. Guess I won't be updating again for a while.

Hello,

I think this is a Windows problem.  I'm using an iMac using Catalina 10.15.7 and my panels are working same as 22.3.

Hello!
I have the same problem. Plugins icons are blank after updating photoshop to version 22.4.

If I resize the bar, I find the label with the name of the plugin but there is no icon for it. However if I click on their button, the plugins open and work correctly. Windows 10 20H2 x64

Sorry for my bad English.

Yes, I've noticed this with the docking icons for Libraries Panel and Adobe Color Themes at least 🙁... they appear just as gray blocks since I updated to 22.4.0. I'm using Windows 10.

Adobe's own Adobe Color Themes and Plugins panels are also missing their docking icons.
